What children learn in Level 9

A region is an area where the land and features are alike. Georgia has five geographic regions.
Three are in the north: the Blue Ridge mountains in the northeast, the Ridge and Valley in the northwest, and the tiny Appalachian Plateau in the far northwest corner.
The Piedmont stretches across the middle of north Georgia. Atlanta is there.
The Coastal Plain covers the whole southern half of Georgia. It's the biggest region!
